Storyline

You arrive in Larcenest Gap, a quiet town out in the middle of nowhere, on assignment as a junior reporter. The locals are friendly, the vending machines whisper, and someone keeps rearranging the garden gnomes. At first, it’s all small-town charm and oddball errands. But the deeper you dig through conversations, old photos, and maybe a few suspiciously sticky notes the more it becomes clear: something’s off. Your job? Write stories. Take photos. Ask too many questions. And maybe just maybe figure out what’s really going on in the Gap.
